    A very in depth and well researched perspective of Heavens Gate as a New Age Religion
  

*by T***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 26, 2018*

I am kicking myself that i waited to read to read this, as someone who is fascinated and interested in all things cults/new religious movements and especially all things Heavens Gate. I've heard from other readers that this book was too dry, academic and unapproachable--yes it is academic and it is only dry in the sense that it doesnt sensationalize what happened within and the aftermath of the group. It really fleshes out the larger context of heavens gate in the larger culture, while also providing seeds of very fascinating inner working and dynamics and historical details of the group itself--stuff that other sources seem to gloss over in favor of the nire sensationalized stuff. I am o ly halfway throguh but i confidently and highly reccommend reading it to get a clear, humanized, dignified and truly fascinating perspective on everything to do with Heavens Gate.

    Not at all what I was looking for and not worth the price
  

*by M***A on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 1, 2015*

I bought this book hoping to learn about the movement, its origins and practices, and the day to day life of its members. What I got was a very long technical and scientific work that would have been better placed in a sociology journal- if it was shorter!  I could not finish it, and I really tried. Several times. It was extremely boring and dry. I have read other books about cults and non-mainstream religions (notably J Reitmann's book on Scientology and Raven about Jim Jones) that I thought were excellent and interesting. This book is nothing like that. I do not feel that I know much more about  this movement than when I started. While it is obvious the author is very intelligent and has studied this movement in depth, I feel he cannot write in an engaging manner that will hold most readers' attention. Perhaps a reader with a Masters or PhD in sociology or psychology would find this interesting and be able to get through it, but I have doubts about that. I am used to reading articles for professional journals; that's what this book reminds me of. I'm very disappointed, and angry that I spent more than $13 on this book (kindle edition). Thank goodness I dIdn't pay for the printed edition. Wish I could get my money back.

    A thought-provoking look at Heaven's Gate
  

*by L***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 3, 2014*

This book is a thorough investigation of the Heaven's Gate movement. Benjamin Zeller describes how the movement came to be and explains why it ended the way it did. I heard about the group when their suicides were widely reported in the media. Unfortunately most of the coverage at that time seemed to assume that these people were crazy. Zeller provides context for the movement and shows how they actually had many correspondences with other American new religious movements and evangelical Protestants. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to know more about Heaven's Gate.
